This Week in Astrology
December 29 – January 4, 2026
Key Events
Mercury moves from Sagittarius into Capricorn this week... shifting the energy from Sagittarius's themes to Capricorn's. Pay attention to the areas of life governed by Mercury... a new chapter begins.
Chiron stations direct this week in Aries. After weeks of turning inward, Chiron's energy begins to move forward again... what you've been revisiting is ready to be acted on.
The Moon This Week
The Moon passes through 3 signs this week: Taurus, Gemini, Cancer.
The Moon in Taurus slows the pace and turns attention toward comfort, stability, and the senses. The collective mood favors building over disrupting, savoring over rushing. A grounding day.
The Moon in Gemini fills the air with chatter, curiosity, and mental restlessness. Communication is lively but scattered. A good day for brainstorming... less good for committing to one thing.
The Moon in Cancer softens the collective mood and draws everyone inward. Emotions are closer to the surface, empathy runs deeper, and the need for home and belonging intensifies.
